    Default I would give a report but...


    I would give a report but, when I got to Old River Lake this morning, I tried and tried to get the motor started. Thinking I might have flooded it out, I removed the plugs and picked up the bream pole. After sitting there and catching a few 6 inch bass, I tried the motor again and it finally started , but the motor ran like poopy .
    Think I might have water in the gas, or something, will try to solve the problem and try again during the coming week.

    Bummer, bummer, bummer!

    I'm sorry to hear that, but hey, at least you got a line in the water! Hope it turns out to be a minor thing.

    Sounds like you might have gotten some of the "enriched" with ethanol gasoline. Be sure to use marine Sta-bil. I have heard lots of reports of the new gasoline mixtures messing up engines.

    I've sure had my engine messed up several times, and I'm sure it was ethanol related. I not only use the marine Sta-bil, but I also added a water filter.
